sleep amongst tigers - the things we think we know lyrics
can i press rewind?
freeze moments racing through my mind
like a slowing zoetrope i’m simply seeing what’s behind
can time be kind?
could i hit pause and try again?
i’m frozen in the reels i’m spinning i’m hanging by a thread
i live my life while the world keeps turning
finding no place to call my own
lost more than i care to admit and
each call just ends in dial tones
the things you know
offset but can’t outweigh the…
things you don’t
prepare your mind to bear this…
heavy load
but you don’t have to walk this path alone
path alone
i’m calling my lifeline
i dream of pictures no one else can see
i’m painting family portraits that are all absеnt of me
as time expirеs
and i lie tired and broken
the paths on which i choose to walk have taken better men
i live my life while the world keeps turning
finding no place to call my own
lost more than i care to admit and
each call just ends in dial tones
the things you know
offset but can’t outweigh the…
things you don’t
prepare your mind to bear this…
heavy load
but you don’t have to walk this path alone
path alone
you just hit the snooze and try to go back to bed
block out the noise and find a safe sp+ce to lay your head
forget mistakes of years past
god am i ignorant?
i wish i’d close my eyes move on and f+cking forget
